System Design

The surfaceCONTROL 3D 25x0 measuring system is composed of a compact sensor with a large measuring field and a
controller. The captured 3D data is transferred to the external controller where they are processed.
Gigabit Ethernet ensures fast data output. The 2D/3D Gateway II supports EtherNet/IP , PROFINET and EtherCAT connec-
tions. 3DInspect and DefMap3D are powerful software tools that enable precise 3D measurements and surface inspec-
tion.
GigE Vision compatibility also allows easy integration into third-party image processing software. The comprehensive
SDK for customer software integration rounds off the software package.

Particular Performance Characteristics

- surfaceCONTROL 3D 25x0 is characterized by a compact design and highly accurate measurements while at the
same time achieving high throughput of 3D points.
- Data are output via Gigabit Ethernet. GigE Vision compatibility allows the sensor to be integrated in different ways:
ƒ Software provided by Micro-Epsilon
ƒ Software by third parties
ƒ SDK
- Gigabit Ethernet as a fast default connection to the PC
System integrators, customers require their own software

surfaceCONTROL 3D SC2500 / SC2510
surfaceCONTROL 3D 25x0 is a sensor for non-contact and non-destructive optical and
three-dimensional detection of components with diffuse reflective surfaces. It operates
according to the optical triangulation principle (fringe projection):
- Using a matrix projector, a sequence of patterns is projected onto the test object sur-
face.
- The light of the patterns diffusely reflected by the test object surface is recorded by
two cameras.
- The three-dimensional surface of the test object is then calculated from the recorded
image sequence and the arrangement of the two cameras to each other.
